Recycling (Don't Let It Become A Dying Art)

Recycle this, recycle that
Whoops, I've recycled our family cat
Recycling is fun and easy too
Listen to me I'll tell you what to do.
Aluminum cans don't need to be trash
Turn them into ready cash
Batteries, mobile phones and computers too
Can be reused or recycled at a centre near you.
Buying recycled products show that you care
Conserve and save money for all to share
When you buy groceries at your local store
Use environmental bags and do even more.
Work on reusing all the garbage we can
Work hard, it is a simple plan
Use a bag not once but twice
Giving your old toys to someone else is nice.
We all must work to keep our planet free
From landfill, rubbish and debris
We all need to stick together and all do our part
Don't let recycling become a dying art.
